A Crisis of Governance

When are Republicans at all levels -- national, state and local -- going to speak up? Even though we are now beyond repealing and replacing the Affordable Care Act, does calling yourself a Republican matter so much that you look the other way?

Why are partisan agendas, power and wealth more important than people's lives, dignity and well-being?

Republican politicians must demonstrate their decency as human beings with the courage to call out the blatant disregard for what this nation stands for and the conflicts of interest, outright corruption and abuse of wealth and power.

When only Democrats, independents and some media sound the alarm, it makes it a partisan issue. It is not.
